Listen to James Canty's track 'Strangers'

Helped out by immaculate production, James Canty's new track 'Strangers' serves to perfectly showcase his idiosyncratic songwriting and soft, soothing vocals.

Banjos. They're a tricky instrument to get right. Sufjan Stevens proved that they can work with triumphant effect yet they still remain fixed fairly heavily in the corner of Hillbilly shame. Fortunately Essex via Liverpool singer-songwriter James Canty has demonstrated their merit in his new track 'Strangers'.

Helped out by immaculate production, the track serves to perfectly showcase James' idiosyncratic songwriting and soft, soothing vocals; the world waits expectantly for more banjo and more James Canty.
